Included Accounts

[usa2k]

That might explain how when Brandon was fixing a bad DID and the config on the ATA hardware display cleared, there was no Included number anymore in the drop-down. I had it assigned to this ATA and a second account on line#2.

It does show the Included Account here https://cp.voipwelcome.com/billing/included_accounts and I see Toll Free Forwarded is now available to add.

I *think* many of us will want to keep our personal VOIPo number too, but convert it to a Reseller Account.

Yeah, they'll show on the Billing - Included Accounts page. That's where you go to set them up initially too.

The idea behind is that someone can move their primary service to VOIPo.

So for $24.95, you get your personal phone service, a toll-free number, and the ability to resell. Most people are already paying $24.95 or more for their own phone service so this is a pretty sweet deal for them to replace that and get the reseller component as a bonus.

We will have a way for people to "keep" their existing VOIPo residential account and make it their included account when they order...while getting a credit for unused prepaid VOIPo residential time added to the reseller account.

It would be great if the included account is made accessible by https://secure.voipo.com/
That avoids conflicts with using https://cp.voipwelcome.com/ on the same PC for Reseller business.

Both can then stay as active web pages.

QUESTION:

With the Included Reseller Account (You need a better moniker for it) will it be possible to make the Virtual Toll Free number an upgraded second line? Allowing outbound calls to send the outbound CID as the TF CID?

If so, I see little need for a local DID for most business use. While being small scale, the primary included number could be our Residential DID if we so choose.

• The numbers stay separate that way so the correct greeting can be used for a call.
• We could spin off additional metered Accounts as needed if they could send the Toll Free outbound CID.
• The Toll-Free numbers could come into some internally assigned number handling multiple TF DID routes
  
  • Then route it to TF SIP like sip:8775554444@in.voipwelcome.com

A better moniker: Biz Account, Seller Number, Seller DID.
